"The director, Stevan Mijailovic, is clear about his vision by keeping the set simple and bare, the effect being that we concentrate solely on the emotion presented without any distractions. The oh-so-simple use of scrunched up newspaper allowed for the creation of a multitude of scenes and lasting images, a wholly successful effect which exemplified the inspired approach to the set. It was a precious example of theatre being stripped back to its basics" BROADWAY BABY

"...plentiful praise must be given to Stevan Mijailovic’s outstanding direction, which made this piece of physical theatre so captivating. Beautifully and sensitively executed." BoxDust

"There is no outside truth, only the shattered fragments of a broken man. Outstanding." THREEWEEKS

"Mijailovic's production is subtle and intelligent" STAGE
